>>49582568 #I realise it’s not just as simple as always getting the right number, and to be fair when I said it took 30 minutes in my post that did include the trial and error of getting the right seed. I’m also not saying it’s the same as injecting a hacked Pokémon.
The point I’m making is why not just inject instead of fucking around for 30 minutes?
I get shiny hunting, it’s autistic but it’s a truely random Pokémon with random stats. The hunter doesn’t know what they’re going to get, they might not even find their target like that Ralts guy.
Injecting takes out that aspect, you know all the details and can easily replicate it to be a “legitimate” shiny the game has the potential to produce.
You haven’t really “earned” anything through sweat and tears because at the end of the day it might take a few tries but you’ll always know exactly what you’re going to get.
